Great Strides for Cystic Fibrosis

In November 2008, Steve and I along with Austin decided to support the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation in the research pursuits to cure CF by walking in the Great Strides Walk on the Texas A&M campus.

It was a pretty cold day and after a quick burrito breakfast served by “Breathe Hope”, the Texas A&M student group that supports CF, we started walking.  We didn’t make the full 5K because we realized about halfway that Austin wasn’t feeling well.  When we got home he had a 102 degree fever and fighting a lung infection. 
We are walking on May 1 and have formed “Team Austin”, a group of about 10 walkers that are all raising money for a cure for cystic fibrosis.  Our team goal is to raise $3,500!
